The Independent Mind: Learning to Live a Life of Freedom
Osho - 2016
"It is utterly dangerous to be sane in this world," Osho says. "A sane person has to pay a heavy price for his sanity."Osho pleads in this book for what he calls an independent mind, independent thinking – and challenges us to question our belief that we are already great independent minds, a belief based on the lack of understanding that our thoughts mostly come from others, like a computer program full of malware downloaded into our brains."What I mean by the thinking state is that you should have eyes, what I mean is the ability to think on your own. But I don't mean a crowd of thoughts. We all have a crowd of thoughts within us, but we don't have thinking within us. So many thoughts go on moving within us, but the power of thinking has not been awakened."In his early days of teaching Osho ran meditation camps in which he introduced people into meditation, and his morning and evening talks created the framework of understanding for this work. This book is a fascinating record of one of these camps – in a short period of three days Osho introduces his participants to an understanding that our minds are running on malware programs – and he introduces meditation as an antivirus to clean our minds of the conditionings and indoctrinations that are preventing us from realizing our full potential and to be happy.“In the coming three days I will talk to you about the search for life…I must first say that life is not what we understand it to be. Until this is clear to us, and we recognize in our hearts that what we think of as life is not life at all, the search for the true life cannot begin.”“When you have something authentically your own in your mind, you start moving toward the soul. Then you become worthy, then you are able to know the soul. Until you have an independent mind, it is simply impossible for individuality to be born.”

A God Named Desire
Ty Gibson - 2010
We are creatures of intense desire. We emerge from the womb longing for touch and affection. Desire pulsates within us every waking moment of our lives. Our hearts are fueled by hungry yearnings for connection, for relationship, for a sense of belonging. We plunge into life, giving ourselves away to him or her, to this or that, drinking in every promise of fulfillment. And yet, we always emerge from the quest for love still feeling a persistent and insatiable desire for something more. A God Named Desire is about that something more. There are some books that speak with an unusual level of clarity to the deepest issues that press the human heart. This is one of those rare books. You will never see god, or yourself, the same after the insights of A God Named Desire are introduced into your mind.

It Is Done!: The Final Step To Instant Manifestations
Richard Dotts - 2014
Suddenly, everything he had learnt up to that point about manifestations made complete sense. What if the word we commonly use to end our prayers today is not merely added as an afterthought, but meant to be a powerful manifestation tool in the first place? What if it is actually the most important part in any prayer? What was going through the minds of those ancient spiritual masters when they said words similar to “amen”? Does that word really hold the final step to fulfilling our desires? In It Is Done!, bestselling author and spiritual explorer Richard Dotts explores the hidden significance behind these three simple words in the English language. Three words, when strung together and used in the right fashion, holds the keys to amazingly accurate and speedy manifestations. In his usual candid, illuminating style which has made him a seven time Amazon bestselling author, Dotts devotes the first half of this book to explain his 10-year struggle with the Law of Attraction, and how he struggled to leave behind his habit of incessant worrying and fearful thoughts. “I was constantly worried about things going wrong even when everything was going right. I was afraid that one day, I would run out of money and bad things would happen to me,” writes Dotts candidly in one of the chapters. Then Dotts quickly moves to show the reader how they can break free from the 4 major blocks that prevent manifestations from occurring in their own lives, and how these blocks are often so pervasive that we do not even realize they are there. Because these “unseen” blocks feel so familiar to us, we often do not recognize that they are standing between us and our greater good. Get rid of these major blocks, and the manifestations come quickly and effortlessly for you regardless of what manifestation techniques you use. Learn as Dotts recounts the story of Mark, an old friend whom he has shared these techniques with and whom, within a short span of time managed to achieve incredible financial success in his life. Also learn about the story of other individuals, whose unwillingness to trust in the process led to continued failure and disappointments for them. Dott astutely points out that the difference between these two groups of individuals lies not in manifestation abilities, but in their abilities to work past and get around these 4 major manifestation blocks. Finally in the second half of this book, Dotts leads readers through the “It is Done!” process in greater detail. Learn how to apply the technique to greatly compound the effectiveness of any manifestation technique you are currently using, be it more conventional techniques such as affirmations, visualizations or even more new-age techniques such as Matrix Energetics, EFT or Quantum Healing. There is no need to change whatever you are currently doing to reap benefits from “It is Done!” Whatever you are currently doing, the “It is Done!” technique can help you achieve your desires and dissolve any blocks that stand in the way even faster.
In the End-The Beginning: The Life of Hope
Jürgen Moltmann - 2003
S. Eliot, and Jrgen Moltmann's new book is a powerful testament to personal hope in chaotic, even catastrophic times.As Moltmann's award-winning volume The Coming of God laid out the systematic framework of eschatology (the doctrine of the ''last things''), so here he explores the personal meaning of that fundamental affirmation for Christians. Debunking the classic images of Christian apocalyptic scenarios, the final struggle between God and Satan, Christ and the AntichristArmageddonMoltmann instead shows that Christian expectation of the future has nothing to do with these but everything to do with new beginnings and a horizon of hope. Three parts explore three particular beginnings: birth (childhood and youth), rebirth (failures and defeats), and resurrection (death, judgment, afterlife).This brief volume promises to be one of Moltmann's most personal and compelling books.

Release the Sun: The Story of the Bab, Prophet Herald of the Baha'i Faith, and the Extraordinary Time in Which He Lived
William Sears - 1960
While Christians anticipated the return of Jesus Christ, a wave of expectation swept through Islam that the "Lord of the Age" would soon appear. In Persia, this reached a dramatic climax on May 23, 1844, when a twenty-five-year-old merchant from Shiraz named Siyyid 'Ali-Muhammad, later title "The Bab," announced that He was the bearer of a divine Revelation destined to transform the spiritual life of the human race. Furthermore, He claimed that He was but the Herald of another Messenger, who would soon bring a far greater Revelation that would usher in an age of universal peace. Against a backdrop of wide-scale moral decay in Persian society, this declaration aroused hope and excitement among all classes. The Bab quickly attracted tens of thousands of followers, including influential members of the clergy--and the brutal hand of a fearful government bent on destroying this movement that threatened to rock the established order.

In the World but Not of It: New Teachings from Jesus on Embodying the Divine
Gina Lake - 2016
You can become Christ within this human life and learn to embody all that is good within you. I came to show you the beauty of your own soul and what is possible as a human. I came to show you that it is possible to be both human and divine, to be love incarnate. You are equally both. You walk with one foot in the world of form and another in the Formless. This mysterious duality within your being is what this book is about.” "The consciousness that is within me is also within you. You are the son as equally as I am. You are the ‘I am’ I spoke about. You and I are one. You and everyone else are one. Many are ready for the Christ within to come forward and manifest in the world more fully. The birthing of this Christ—of Christ Consciousness—is the true second coming. ‘Christ Consciousness,’ as I am using it, points to the divinity within everyone and the potential for that divinity to become a living reality, to become what lives you. I was an example of that possibility in my lifetime two thousand years ago.” This book was given to Gina Lake by Jesus. It is part of a series of books, including A Heroic Life and The Jesus Trilogy. You will learn: • How to embody the divine self in the world • How to tell when you are identified with the ego • How to spot the ego in your thoughts and conversations • What kind of thoughts are in the thought-stream • How to disidentify from the ego • How to be in your body and senses • How to move into Presence and stay there • How to be present while speaking and acting in the world • Spiritual practices that support Presence • What embodiment, enlightenment, self-realization, and awakening are • Pitfalls on the spiritual path • How to be with emotions • How to be with and heal energetic blocks in the body • How to overcome bad habits and addictions Review from David Fishman, teacher of A Course in Miracles: "I love this book! It's a perfect companion to all students and teachers of A Course in Miracles, for it encompasses the core themes and values of ACIM in a simple format that provides practical guidance for everyday use. The guidance our elder brother offers in the pages of this book is priceless. I highly recommend this book as the perfect complement to ACIM and the perfect first book to all you love and care for who may not appear to be ready now for opening A Course in Miracles."
